Help a Medical Student in Gaza

My name is Hisham Mohammed, I am a 23-year-old 5th year medical student from Gaza. I work in a hospital in North Gaza, but do not earn a salary.

I have created this campaign to provide for my family, which includes my mother, my grandfather, my grandmother, my brother, my sister, her husband and their 2 year old child.

My family and I were separated for over a year: they had moved towards the South while I remained in the North, and we were separated by a checkpoint. In January, we were finally reunited and we stayed in a shelter together until recently, when we found a small apartment to rent.

For months, my family and I have been struggling to survive and to access basic necessities, and I have continued to work to provide medical care to my community even as my own health worsened.

We urgently need your donations in order to be able to afford food, water, rent and other necessities.
